Other Corporate Entities. We may share much of our data, including
personal information about you, with our subsidiaries that are committed

Legal Requests. eBay cooperates with law enforcement inquiries,
as well as other third parties to enforce laws, such as: intellectual
property rights, fraud and other rights, to help protect you from
bad actors. Therefore, in response to a verified request by law
enforcement or other government officials relating to a criminal
investigation or alleged illegal activity, we can (and you authorize
us to) disclose your name, city, state, telephone number, email
address without a subpoena. Without limiting the above, in an effort
to respect your privacy and our ability to keep the internet community
free from bad actors, we will not otherwise disclose your personal
information to law enforcement or other government officials without
a subpoena, court order or substantially similar legal procedure,
except when we believe in good faith that the disclosure of information
is necessary to: prevent imminent physical harm or financial loss;
or report suspected illegal activity. Further, we can (and you authorize
us to) disclose your name, street address, city, state, zip code,
country, phone number, email, and company name to government officials,
as we in our sole discretion believe necessary or appropriate in
connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property
infringement, piracy, or other unlawful activity.
Due to the existing regulatory environment, we cannot ensure that
all of your private communications and other personal information
will never be disclosed in ways not otherwise described in this
Privacy Policy. By way of example (without limiting the foregoing),
we may be forced to disclose personal information to the government
or third parties under certain circumstances, third parties may
unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications,
or users may abuse or misuse your personal information that they
collect from the Site. Therefore, although we use industry standard
practices to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should
not expect, that your personal information or private communications
will always remain private.
